As we celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week from May 8 to May 12, 2023, the Chula Vista Elementary School District (CVESD) would like to express our gratitude for the invaluable contributions of our teachers. Their efforts and unwavering commitment play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our children.
Today, we spotlight the heartwarming story of Sally Smith and Miranda Campos, two remarkable teachers at Olympic View Elementary School who exemplify the dedication of our esteemed CVESD teaching community. Miranda, who was once a student in Ms. Smith's 1st grade class in 2003, now stands side by side with her as they both teach kindergarten.
Both outstanding educators have a deep connection to CVESD. They attended elementary school in our District, and their mothers were also CVESD employees. One of Miranda's favorite memories with Ms. Smith is their first teacher zoo field trip, a beautiful full-circle moment where they led their groups together as colleagues and friends.
Miranda cherishes Ms. Smith's incredible kindness and compassion, finding her to be an inspirational role model. Their mutual admiration for each other's work makes working together a joy, and they both share a passion for witnessing the growth and energy of their kindergarten students throughout the year. Their goal is to create a school environment where students genuinely enjoy coming to learn and thrive.
As we celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week, we want to extend our deepest appreciation to all our wonderful CVESD teachers who go above and beyond to create stimulating learning environments for our students, instilling a love for learning that will last a lifetime. Thank you for your unwavering commitment to nurturing our students' potential. Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!
